You don't have to "prove false" any statement to know it is a typical CNN hit piece masquerading as "NEWS" and gobbled up by you guys.
Here is a great example:
"So much for draining the swamp. Nominating Steve Mnuchin to be Treasury Secretary -- a billionaire hedge fund manager and Goldman Sachs alumnus who preyed on homeowners struggling during the recession -- is a slap in the face to voters who hoped he would shake up Washington," said Democratic National Committee spokesman Adam Hodge in a statement
Who said that in a statement?
DNC spokesman Adam Hodge.
AH, there's some real news for ya. A DNC spokesman is bemoaning Trump's picks.
Yeah, no bias from THAT GUY.
This is no surprise whatsoever. It's a given that the main stream media and other left wingers will bemoan whatever Donald Trump says or does.
Didn't Fox News report that Hillary was ahead in a Fox poll just prior to the election?
You should stop fighting the false war of left vs right. You lost.
Fox is no different than CNN, MSNBC, CBS, ABC, NBC, etc. It's all corporate controlled media, and they all tried to dismiss Trump as a presidential contender.
But you conveniently left off this part.....is a slap in the face to voters who hoped he would shake up Washington," ....... "Trump is already heading into office as the most corrupt, conflicted, and unpopular president-elect in history, and now he's breaking his signature promise to the voters who elected him." Opinion given as "fact". Typical CNN.
You conveniently left out this part:
"So much for draining the swamp. Nominating Steve Mnuchin to be Treasury Secretary -- a billionaire hedge fund manager and Goldman Sachs alumnus who preyed on homeowners struggling during the recession -- is a slap in the face to voters who hoped he would shake up Washington," said Democratic National Committee spokesman Adam Hodge in a statement. "Trump is already heading into office as the most corrupt, conflicted, and unpopular president-elect in history, and now he's breaking his signature promise to the voters who elected him."
So they weren't expressing CNNs' opinion, but quoting a statement they attributed to a statement made by Adam Hodge.
How is that a lie?

I don't recall saying that. You, on the other hand, claimed that they lied. Where's your proof?

I think the emphasis was supposed to be on Donald Trump, as in, not Hillary Clinton... maybe it would work better in person so you could actually, ya know, hear the emphasis.

I lost nothing, since I don't recall supporting or voting for either candidate. If you have any evidence to the contrary, present it.
I'll understand if you can't.
The only "war" I'm fighting is the one against opinions masquerading as facts.
Gary Cohn, who is COO of Goldman Sachs has been talking to Trump and is rumored for head of Office of Management and the Budget. This is getting a little absurd, I don't care what your politics are. Why not just outsource the government to Goldman Sachs?

It's a good thing that the alt-right media and other right wingers have the moral high ground, since they refrained from bemoaning whatever Barack Obama did or said.

Do you honestly believe that this hasn't been the case for at least the last 8-16 years? Really nothing new, unfortunately.

I voted for Obama. I was hugely disappointed that he broke every promise that he made. But this topic isn't about Obama, it isn't about what you call right-wingers, it isn't about me, it isn't about what you call the "alt-right media", it isn't about all the other distractions that you have brought into this topic.
Fact of the matter this topic is based on a hit piece from CNN that declares that Trump is no different than any other politician like Obama (since you bring him up) and won't be "draining the swamp'".
It's nonsense at this point because Trump hasn't even taken office. However if you wish to place what they say at CNN on a pedestal as a credible news source, given everything that has been exposed about them, then so be it. I support your right to believe as you wish.
